This is a classic episode. Brendon and Jason discover that they are fat enablers for each other. At first they deny that they are but Melissa manages to convince them other wise.

The highlights of the episode include Jason threatening to sue the nurse for commenting on his weight. Also, Coach McGuirk's comments on how women date men who look like their father is priceless. He believes that women with fat fathers prefer fat men. It is priceless.

You do not see much of the movie they are making but what little you see is pretty funny. Jason's bad acting is awesome here.moreless
